<p>This is for all of those who think Ithaca is a town of nothing located in the middle of nowhere. It's a guide that covers state parks, gorges, hiking trails, mountain bike trails, golf courses, family activities, water recreation, lake tours and cruises, fishing, hunting, ski resorts, wineries, museums, art galleries, theaters, shopping areas, markets, spas, nightlife, a restaurant guide, hotels and maps, plus much more. In all, it's just under 70 pages of stuff to do. </p>
<p>I highly recommend people pick up their free copy. It'll give you ideas of what to do on a free weekend date. I've used it quite a bit this summer alone and plan to send copies to a few freshmen to be (i'm a student advisor). </p>
<p>And i'll just post that link if people whine about Ithaca's size.</p>
<p>Oh, and since this thread deals with Ithaca...I just came across this info:
[quote]
Ithaca is commonly listed among the most culturally liberal (or, to the like-minded, "enlightened") of American small cities. The Utne Reader named Ithaca "America's most enlightened town" in 1997.</p>
<p>Like many small college towns, Ithaca has also received accolades for having a high overall quality of life. In 2004, Cities Ranked and Rated named Ithaca the best "emerging city" to live in the United States. In 2006, the Internet realty website "Relocate America" named Ithaca the fourth best city in the country to relocate to.
<p>I got this one when I visited Cornell. LOL I asked a guy where could I sojourn in Ithaca for one night and he gave me. Cornell students are really nice and smart. :)</p>
